Andrii Nakryiko says: ==================== This patch set makes a number of changes to test_progs selftest, which is a collection of many other tests (and sometimes sub-tests as well), to provide better testing experience and allow to start convering many individual test programs under selftests/bpf into a single and convenient test runner. Patch #1 fixes issue with Makefile, which makes prog_tests/test.h compiled as a C code. This fix allows to change how test.h is generated, providing ability to have more control on what and how tests are run. Patch #2 changes how test.h is auto-generated, which allows to have test definitions, instead of just running test functions. This gives ability to do more complicated test run policies. Patch #3 adds `-t <test-name>` and `-n <test-num>` selectors to run only subset of tests. Patch #4 changes libbpf_set_print() to return previously set print callback, allowing to temporarily replace current print callback and then set it back. This is necessary for some tests that want more control over libbpf logging. Patch #5 sets up and takes over libbpf logging from individual tests to test_prog runner, adding -vv verbosity to capture debug output from libbpf. This is useful when debugging failing tests. Patch #6 furthers test output management and buffers it by default, emitting log output only if test fails. This give succinct and clean default test output. It's possible to bypass this behavior with -v flag, which will turn off test output buffering. Patch #7 adds support for sub-tests. It also enhances -t and -n selectors to both support ability to specify sub-test selectors, as well as enhancing number selector to accept sets of test, instead of just individual test number. Patch #8 converts bpf_verif_scale.c test to use sub-test APIs. Patch #9 converts send_signal.c tests to use sub-test APIs. v2->v3: - fix buffered output rare unitialized value bug (Alexei); - fix buffered output va_list reuse bug (Alexei); - fix buffered output truncation due to interleaving zero terminators; v1->v2: - drop libbpf_swap_print, instead return previous function from libbpf_set_print (Stanislav); ==================== Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
